Inky Little Sunbeams

Just a thought...

Love. Hope. Dream...

Just a thought...

 

Summer is around the corner and all the midnight adventures it holds...

Just a thought...

Time is worth nothing if it is not spent with you...

I'm writing about true love at the moment and it's achingly blissful...

Need. Want. Buy...

I need this sign in my office! Love it. Holla if you know where it's from...

Truth and love.

Love hurts sometimes...

I wrote this because it's true...

Very apt for this moment in time.

And of course as Rev. Run once wisely said - whilst ensconced in his bath of bubbles - 'Don't hate, congratulate.'

True. That. Peeps.

 

Successful business cards start with cockney rhyming slang - in my case anyway...

What is the number one rule when creating new business cards? Make sure that they can be used as a talking point in themselves, that way they’re likely not to meet the dull fate of being cast into a shoebox with all of the other ones out there that didn't make the cut onto the desk...

It’s clear, thanks to moo.com they’re printed on good paper stock so I can relax and have a good laugh with people about my favourite genre of subjects - you guessed it - words. I always let people choose which one they want which is a bit more fun. Make sure that your design pertains in some way to what you do, that way you can bring your work in an interesting way into the conversation.

I had the pleasure of meeting a proper cockney chap on a cruise recently and even he couldn’t guess the meaning of some of them, but he had a good laugh trying.

Yes we all know now that if you Google someone you’re likely to find a reference via social media to them. I believe that a card still has its place though; it’s a tangible opportunity to market your skill set and personality. Why on earth would you want to miss an opportunity like that?

 

Speed. Mood. Board.

A little thought that turned into a bit of writing...

Autumn's here - bonfires, auburn leaves and star gazing on chilled evenings...

Words of Wisdom.

It takes courage to put your beliefs and new designs out there into the world. Always stay true to what you believe to be possible until you can find an avenue to make it so...

True words.

It's hard being creative by yourself sometimes; you have no one to pick you up when you're low and keep you inspired. Surrounding yourself with people that believe in what you do will always help push you to achieving your personal goals when you're low. Remember: Positive acts breed more positive acts...
